Distance
1
Helmsley Road, Rainworth, Notts.
Here the Mansfield Way (a medium distance trail) is approaching Helmsley Road where walkers wishing to continue to follow the trail need to cross this residential road and to descend on the opposite side of it to pick up former route used by the Mansfield-Southwell Railway. A 2.5 mile long railway was built from Rolleston Junction on the Nottingham-Lincoln line to Southwell in 1847. In April 1871 the line was extended to Mansfield. This extension helped further development of the coalfield east of Mansfield, so much so that the increasing amount of coal-related traffic resulted in the whole line being doubled in the 1920s. The line closed to passengers in 1959.

Southwell Road East Vicinity, Rainworth, Notts.
Having left behind the point where The Mansfield Way (medium distance trail) route has just required walkers to cross the A617 (the dual carriage-way Rainworth by-pass), the track enters this dip, after which walkers are obliged to ascend this slope. This is at the rear of the first house on this stretch of the B2060 in the direction of Rainworth. The path is continuing to follow the route previously used by the Mansfield-Southwell Railway. A 2.5 mile long railway was built from Rolleston Junction on the Nottingham-Lincoln line to Southwell in 1847. In April 1871 the line was extended to Mansfield. This extension helped further development of the coalfield east of Mansfield, so much so that the increasing amount of coal-related traffic resulted in the whole line being doubled in the 1920s. The line closed to passengers in 1959.
